Serves: 2, Difficulty: Expert

Preparation Time: 45 minutes, Cooking Time: 2 hours

Ingredients

• 1 kg Beef ribs
• 10 g Salt
• 5 g Black pepper, freshly ground
• 100 g Chimichurri sauce
• 5 g Oregano
• 10 g Fresh parsley, chopped
• 50 ml Olive oil
• 5 g Garlic powder
• 5 g Chili powder
• 2 g Thyme, dried

Method

• Preheat your oven to 160°C. Ensure your beef ribs are at room temperature. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel and season them with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder.
• In a large ovenproof dish, drizzle olive oil and lay the ribs, ribs side down. Scatter thyme and chopped parsley over them.
• Cover the dish with aluminum foil and slow-cook the ribs in the oven for 1.5 hours, ensuring the ribs are tender and juicy.
• Increase the temperature to 200°C, remove the foil, and brush the ribs generously with chimichurri sauce.
• Return to oven for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize, ensuring a crispy, flavorful crust.
• Remove from the oven, let the ribs rest for 5 minutes, and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and a touch of additional chimichurri.

Tips

• For a deeper flavor, marinate the ribs with chimichurri sauce overnight in the refrigerator.
• Serve with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad to complement the rich flavors of the beef ribs.
